I was in the Selles out court, results were bad and he was insistent in playing his way despite it blatantly not working, and by his own admission the only way he knew. However, he did make changes, he has learnt from his mistakes and because of that I have altered my view about him, and I don't min...
As I've posted before, when Rick Parry was before the Commons committee, he said the EFL's preference was to move to a squad-cost ratio (I think he said the costs of the squad should be pegged at a maximum of 70% of turnover), instead of the current system, so that the EFL could intervene pretty mu...
Shame. Good luck to him, should have played more. Hope we got something semi decent for him. Should he? Apart from his first 2 or 3 appearances he showed he wasn't ready for the first team. Couldn't get involved, no strength, had very little impact on games. It will come, i'm sure of that, but he d...
I think he might do well at Pompey, I wouldn't be surprised if they looked to utilise him as a holding midfielder, although that's because I've always thought he could do a decent job there. If you need a good tackler to literally just sit and protect your CB's whilst shifting the ball to the more ...
Always felt NGW was unfairly treated here and his performances warranted more faith. He absolutely had flaws, bit weak in the challenge and not the strongest defensively, but really good going forward. Just constantly exposed by managerial tactics and poor players ahead of him. All the best to him ...

[qand I fear you may be wrong with regard to planning permission at Bearwood. There were very similar objections at Maidenhead and the only concession so far has been a small reduction in the number of houses to be built. Regardless of those outcomes the main point is the asset value in any negotia...
How does the EFL/FA actually force a sale though? If they ban him from ownership, how does that affect his position? Its probably similar to being banned from being a company director. He will still own the club but will not be allowed to have any say in the running of the club. If the people who t...
No news on Reading's potential new owners? It can't be easy selling a money pit. Good news from Carlisle though. They do have new owners; the Piatak family from Jacksonville, Florida. https://businesscrack.co.uk/2023/12/01/family-business-friday-usa-family-new-owners-of-carlisle-united-fc/ The futu...
You can make up shit all you like mate. Doesn't make it true. He got the punishment, required and deserved. Doesn’t make what true? That you’d have whinged at Selles had he done that? Because we all know you would And I didn’t argue that it wasn’t required or deserved. The opposite in fact I'll be ...
Cheltenham have lost six players, who return to their parent clubs after their loans expired: https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1742138671522848919 Owen Bevan (Bournemouth) - due to an injury Luciano D'Auria-Henry (Fulham) Oli Hammond (Nottm Forest) Jovan Malcolm (West Brom) Cameron Peupion (Brighto...
Cheltenham away > pretty much all of the championship away days I agree. Thought it was a very enjoyable one despite the first half performance. Cheltenham is one of the nicer places as well and not a shithole like places such as Middlesbrough, Swansea, Birmingham, Preston and Huddersfield which ar...
I think he has been helped by having a fully fit Wing in the side and a player in Azeez who has delivered some end product. I'm not going to give him credit for that, and it took him way too long to relaise we were playing too narrow. Since we have played with more width we have got better results....
